    Default Ouch, this's gotta hurt McCain

    YouTube - Colin Powell Endorses Barack Obama

    Impressive interview for Colin Powell.

    "They said this day would never come. They said our sights were set too high. They said this country was too divided, too disillusioned to ever come around a common purpose. But on this January night, at this defining moment in history, you have done what the cynics said we couldn't do." - Barack Obama.

    You know why it's funny? Because Powell isn't technically black.

    ^I think an endorsement of Bill Ayers is next in Palin's agenda tbh.

    Quite blatantly, the Republican candidate needed to be Colin Powell.

    Well, lets also consider the fact that Powell was screwed over by the entire Bush Administration. He was forced to take the brunt force of the foreign world's scrutiny against America.

    However, he is right. Obama stands with the ability to completely revitalize America's political system. If you know anything about his rise to political stardom, he has used the political machine to his advantage, without ever being inside of it. He has an insatiable hunger for knowledge and he really stands for legitimate change.

    Did NOT see this endorsment coming.

    I think this has basically sealed the deal for Obama.

    Something I found amazing: Colin Powell is seventy-one years old.

    But yeah, I would almost consider voting for Powell had he been the Republican nominee. Assuming his VP pick was also a moderate like Olympia Snowe.

    The point was made that Obama is a transformational figure that America needs. Good point and a splendid interview by Mr. Powell.

    I have this distinct feeling McCain doesn't even care any more. He's just pushing the limit of what he can get away with.

    Seriously, I don't see him trying any more. I expect an Obama landslide.
